Looking at the smiling Zeng Zhang Tianwang before him.
Xuanqing couldnt help but be speechless.
This scene reminded him of the property guards in the evil residential areas in the Real World. They used to bully the ordinary homeowners, but suddenly they joined the homeowner committee.
Immeasurable Longevity and Fortune, although you work in the Heavenly Court, you are a Buddhist, so you dont need to be like this with me.
Xuanqing glanced at him, then said lightly, I am still not so mean as to argue with a gatekeeping Zeng Zhang Tianwang like you.
With these words.
Two meanings were conveyed.
You are a Buddhist, and I am a Taoist. We are not meant to have any personal relationship, so I wont accept your apologies.
However, as a Daoist Master, I also wont argue with you, a mere gatekeeper.
Seeing this scene.
Huh~
Only then did Zeng Zhang Tianwang breathe a sigh of relief, while his heart was filled with bitterness at the same time.
As a Buddhist assigned to guard the door, facing these Daoist Immortal Officials who come and go, all higher in rank than himself, he could only be cautious, fearing that offending someone by accident would make his life difficult afterward.
After enduring so much for these years, he finally met a little Taoist whom he could bully, only to kick an iron plate, and now this little Taoist had become a Secondary Fourth-Rank Immortal Official.
Sigh the Buddhist path is difficult as is the Immortal path!
As Xuanqing stepped into the Southern Heavenly Gate, he quickly bowed and shouted,
Farewell, Immortal Xuanqing!
Only when the other party entered the gate did Zeng Zhang Tianwang stand up, sighing deeply and lamenting that being a Buddhist who worked in the Heavenly Court was really tough.
Here.
Xuanqing took a step through the Southern Heavenly Gate.
Immediately.
The scene that came into view startled him.
He saw a large gathering of immortals behind the Southern Heavenly Gate, led by Star Lord Taibai and Lord Huo De, two divine Star Lords.
Behind them were immortals from the Department of Thunder, the Mansion of Authority, the Household Registration Department, the Demon Driving Institute even the Wind Lady was among them, along with some unfamiliar immortals.
Upon seeing Xuanqing.
They congratulated him one after another.
Haha, congratulations, Friend Xuanqing, on your promotion to Secondary Fourth-Rank Right Attendant of Taiji Palace, Deputy of Five Thunders, and Leader of Thunder Department Affairs.
Congratulations and celebrations.
A joyous occasion, indeed, as theres now an additional colleague among us.
Although the immortals in the Heavenly Court had their respective duties, in reality, they were very leisurely. The Three Realms operated on their own laws, and they could not casually descend to the Lower Realm for amusement.
Under such circumstances, other than playing chess and drinking wine, they were usually very bored.
Right now, a Taoist from the Human World had ascended during the day, becoming a Secondary Fourth-Rank Daoist Immortal Official. Naturally, they had to come over to witness the event.
Um In modern terms, this would bewelcoming a newcomer!
At this moment.
Xuanqings eyes were filled with astonishment.
He was caught off guard by this scene.
He never imagined that just by coming to the Heavenly Court to be promoted to Secondary Fourth-Rank Daoist Immortal Official, almost half of the immortals in the Heavenly Court would come to watch the excitement.
Greetings to all Seniors and Superior Immortals, I, Xuanqing, am new here, and if theres anything done improperly, please forgive me!
With a smile on his face, Xuanqing held the Yin and Yang hand seals, bowed slightly to the gathering of immortals, and performed a Taoist Etiquette.
Seeing this scene,
Many immortals nodded their heads in approval, What a humble and composed Daoist.
It was no wonder that the colleague from the Household Registration Department personally descended to the Lower Realm to confer the title upon him. Even without mentioning his background, his calm and relaxed mentality alone was enough to not be underestimated.
At this moment.
Seeing that the immortals gathered here had no intention of dispersing,
Star Lord Taibai hurriedly stepped forward and greeted them.
Hahaha, young friend Xuanqing still needs to be conferred as a Secondary Fourth-Rank Daoist Immortal Official. Fellow immortals, why not let him go to Lingxiao Bao Hall for the conferment first How about that?
With these words,
What Star Lord Taibai said makes sense, we should first go and confer the title.
Hahaha-Indeed, indeed.
Friend Xuanqing, if you have time in the future, do come to my divine mansion for a drink.
The gods laughed and bowed their hands in agreement.
It must be said.
Star Lord Taibais face was still very useful in the Heavenly Court, and in addition to the gods who came to watch the fun, most of them werent too high in rank, at least not as high as Star Lord Taibai, who was the Jade Emperors favorite.
Seeing this,
Xuanqing gratefully bowed his hand to Star Lord Taibai.
Its been a long time, young friend Xuanqing. Please- Star Lord Taibai smiled slightly, pointing forward with the whisk in his hand, making an inviting gesture.
Lingxiao Bao Hall.
The Jade Emperor sat upright on a golden chair.
On both sides of the main hall stood various immortals with excellent hearing, such as the Lingual Spirit Official, Giant Spirit God, Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li Jing, Nezha the Third Prince, Three Official Great Emperorand so on.
Reporting to the Jade Emperor, the Daoist Xuanqing from the Human World is waiting outside the hall! Star Lord Taibai stepped forward with his feather duster in his hand, standing beside the Jade Emperor and said softly.
Let him in!
The Jade Emperor nodded slightly and said leisurely.
Immediately,
The Ritual Officer who was waiting at the side shouted, Announce Daoist Xuanqing to pay respects!
Outside of Lingxiao Bao Hall,
In a pavilion waiting for the summons.
Announce Daoist Xuanqing to pay respects.
Listening to the echoing voice,
Xuanqings spirits lifted, and he quickly stood up, his heart filled with curiosity and excitement, heading towards Lingxiao Bao Hall.
After passing through a long corridor and walking several dozen steps,
The view suddenly opened up.
Golden nails adorned the jade doors, and colorful phoenixes danced on the vermilion gates.
The entire hall was filled with exquisite, transparent triple eaves and four clusters, surrounded by layers of dragons and phoenixes soaring.
At the top was a purple, round, and brightly glaring large golden gourd top that dazzled the eyes, making it somewhat hard to keep them open.
On both sides of the hall,
Various immortals stood side by side, in their hands held famous magic tools like circles and towers, or cradled long Immortal Official Records in their arms.bender
Huh~
Xuanqing took a deep breath, stepped forward, raised both hands high above his head, and bowed in salute.
I, Xuanqing, pay my respects to the Jade Emperor of the Vast Sky!
Its worth mentioning,
There is no kneeling etiquette in the Heavenly Court, or in the Three Realms, even in the presence of ancestors, parents, and elders, except for certain occasions, its a bowing salute.
Mortals, who still have gold beneath their knees, are even more so for those who have cultivated to become immortals.
On the high platform,
The Jade Emperors eyes narrowed slightly.
Looking at the familiar Daoist figure in the hall below, he couldnt help but feel nostalgic, finally seeing him in person.
Speaking of which,
As the Boss of the Heavenly Court, he was quite bored.
Just recently,
He became obsessed with a new form of entertainment, which was to lay in his chamber and use the Vast Sky Realm to observe the interesting Daoist whenever he had nothing to do.
Um eating peaches while watching!
Collecting his thoughts,
The Jade Emperor said indifferently, Hear Taiji Left Palace Cavity Ming
Upper Demon Subduing Supervisor, the one in charge of Thunderbolt Departments Mansion Affairs, Daoist Xuanqing should accept the conferment!
I, Xuanqing, accept the conferment!
Xuanqings spirits lifted, and he immediately knelt on one knee, holding his fists in both hands..
